Thanks for answering anyhow.

If the interface is up before suspending, then suspend will assert the
reset-line. If the interface is disabled before suspending, then close
will assert the reset line. Deassertion will happen on resume/open.

So, unless I am overlooking something, my code does not really add
something new. It only makes sure that the reset line always gets
asserted before deasserting. Because in the case that the interface has
never been up before, there is no instance which could assert reset. Or,
at least, I could not find one.

Makes sense? Tests work fine here, at least.

All the best,
